That story could have ended very differently, you are very lucky to have that friend. I hope you showed your appreciation.
Yes, exactly. I'm a seasoned traveler and have never allowed myself to get anywhere near that point when traveling (never like that at home, either), but I had just had a nasty breakup and my ex-fiance was originally supposed to be on that trip with us. I slipped, and she was there to catch me.
We're still very close and I'm now her daughter's honorary aunt. I'll always be supportive and there for her. I felt that way before this event, and it just solidified that I'd made a great choice in friends. Love her so much. :)
